Real-time Media Communication (RTC)

For the moment the RTC work is focused on 5G-RTC, the architecture of TS 26.506 and the protocols of TS 26.113 (which share the provisioning and media session handling APIs of TS 26.510 with 5G Media Streaming), and, in parallel, on SWAP. There is no dedicated Reference Tool for RTC yet. One related repository, the 3GPP SWAP Protocol, is already tracked and listed below. It is shared with the Conversational Avatar Communication project, which owns it. To help build an RTC tool, see Contributing or ask in the developer community.

What's Built​

RTC general architecture
RTC General Architecture, with Reference ToolsBased on TS 26.506 V20.0.0, figure 4.1.1-2

There is no dedicated RTC tool yet. TS 26.113 names a SWAP server as a WebRTC Signalling Function server; rt-3gpp-swap provides SWAP signalling only. Click the figure to enlarge it.
